Rohan Mehra’s ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ co-actor and also his girlfriend, Kanchi Singh, is happy that he chose to meet his brother over her on the reality show ‘Bigg Boss’, recently. She says, “His brother had come all the way from Amritsar and so, his decision was right. Familial ties should be the strongest. I respect him all the more for this.”

However, she isn’t happy about his fans linking her boyfriend with his fellow inmate, Lopamudra Raut. “They watch them daily on screen, so they are free to say whatever they want. I won’t say I am happy about it, but there’s nothing I can do either,” she reasons. Ask her if it will take a toll on her relationship with Rohan, and she says, “My trust isn’t wavering, but it is difficult to watch them together. My relationship is beginning to feel like a long-distance, one-sided affair. There are days when I get scared seeing Rohan’s closeness to Lopa, but it’s reassuring to hear him take my name repeatedly.”

What about him being replaced in their show ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’? “We are actors first and then a couple. It won’t affect me if I am working with another actor playing his part,” she signs off.
